Description | The Gazette, published in Fayette, Mississippi from 1861 to 1862, was a significant voice during the Civil War era. Founded by Arthur M. Greene and later owned by Andrew Marschalk, Jr., it staunchly supported the Confederate cause and criticized President Abraham Lincoln. As a pro-Southern publication, it provided updates on wartime events, including battles and military movements, both locally and across the South. Despite paper shortages limiting it to two pages, it continued to cover local news such as political announcements, weather reports, and obituaries. The Gazette's legacy reflects the turbulent times and the role of newspapers in shaping public opinion during the Civil War. NDLI hosts contents from/of year 1862 of this newspaper. |
